  • Dynamic Analysis of Cardiovascular Drugs Data
    Available online www.jocpr.com Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research, 2014, 6(5):1517-1520 ISSN : 0975-7384 Research Article CODEN(USA) : JCPRC5 Dynamic analysis of cardiovascular drugs data Humei Yang and SunShi The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Medical College , China _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease is an important disease which is a serious hazard to human health, not only that, but the cause is still quite complicated. Therefore, it is very important to carry out research work of cardiovascular drugs in the medical profession. In this article, the money amount sequence method and DDD number sequence method were used to statistically analyze the data of cardiovascular drugs which were purchased by patients in a hospital in Shanghai in 2010-2013 year. The data of cardiovascular drugs second-class hospitals and upper-class hospitals in Shanghai included the drug varieties, prescription medication, the amount of money, which were statistically analyzed in order to provide recommendations for future cardiovascular medication guide. Through this research, we have come to the result that the money of cardiovascular drugs accounts greater of the amount of all of the drugs in the second-class hospitals than that in the upper-class hospitals, and cardiovascular medication amounts, prescriptions, etc of the second-class hospitals and upper-class hospitals had increased than before. Calcium antagonists and angiotensin ⅱ receptor antagonist drugs led occupation, as well as a small amount of varieties of drugs had gone into the top 10 amounts .As for cardiovascular drugs, foreign markets occupy a major market. That is to say that between different levels of hospitals there is some difference in cardiovascular drug use, but the drugs with good effects are already the first choice.

Receptores β−adrenérgicos no sistema cardiovascular. Medicina (Ribeirão Preto) 2006; 39 (1): 3-12. Resumo: Os receptores β-adrenérgicos (β-AR) integram um sistema proteico ternário: β-AR, proteína G de acoplamento e enzimas como a adenilato-ciclase (AC) que produz o 3´-5´ monofosfato de adenosina (AMPc). O principal mecanismo de ação do AMPc é a ativação da proteína quinase A (PKA), capaz de fosforilar inúmeros substratos. Em células endoteliais, a ativação dos β-AR promove o aumento dos níveis citoplasmáticos de Ca+2 favorecendo a ligação do Ca+2 com a calmodulina e deste complexo com a enzima óxido nítrico sintase endotelial (eNOS), resultando na produção de NO. A ativação β-AR no músculo liso vascular e conseqüente ativação da PKA reduz a concentração citoplasmática de Ca+2 e a sua afinidade pela calmodulina, resultando no relaxamento vascular. Os receptores β-AR podem ser agrupados em β-AR clássi- cos (β e β ) e β-AR atípicos (β e β ).

  • Effect of Carvedilol on Heart Rate Response to Cardiopulmonary
    Heart and Vessels (2019) 34:957–964 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00380-018-01326-5 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Efect of carvedilol on heart rate response to cardiopulmonary exercise up to the anaerobic threshold in patients with subacute myocardial infarction Shinji Nemoto1,2 · Yusuke Kasahara1 · Kazuhiro P. Izawa3 · Satoshi Watanabe4 · Kazuya Yoshizawa1 · Naoya Takeichi4 · Kentaro Kamiya2 · Norio Suzuki5 · Kazuto Omiya6 · Atsuhiko Matsunaga2 · Yoshihiro J. Akashi6 Received: 19 July 2018 / Accepted: 21 December 2018 / Published online: 2 January 2019 © Springer Japan KK, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Resting heart rate (HR) plus 20 or 30 beats per minute (bpm), i.e., a simplifed substitute for HR at the anaerobic threshold (AT), is used as a tool for exercise prescription without cardiopulmonary exercise testing data. While resting HR plus 20 bpm is recommended for patients undergoing beta-blocker therapy, the efects of specifc beta blockers on HR response to exer- cise up to the AT (ΔAT HR) in patients with subacute myocardial infarction (MI) are unclear. This study examined whether carvedilol treatment afects ΔAT HR in subacute MI patients. MI patients were divided into two age- and sex-matched groups [carvedilol (+), n = 66; carvedilol (−), n = 66]. All patients underwent cardiopulmonary exercise testing at 1 month after MI onset. ΔAT HR was calculated by subtracting resting HR from HR at AT. ΔAT HR did not difer signifcantly between the carvedilol (+) and carvedilol (−) groups (35.64 ± 9.65 vs. 34.67 ± 11.68, P = 0.604). Multiple regression analysis revealed that old age and heart failure after MI were signifcant predictors of lower ΔAT HR (P = 0.039 and P = 0.013, respectively), but not carvedilol treatment.

  • Quality Use of Cardiovascular Medicines (169K PDF)
    5 Quality use of cardiovascular medicines This chapter presents information on several aspects of the appropriate use of medicines for cardiovascular disease for which data are available and describes national initiatives aimed at achieving quality use of these medicines where deficiencies have been identified. 5.1 Medicines prescribed for cardiovascular disease Data on cardiovascular medicines that GPs prescribed or supplied for specific cardiovascular conditions and risk factors (hypertension, lipid disorders and diabetes) were sourced from the BEACH study for the period April 2000–March 2006. For information on this study and details of the method used to analyse the data, see the Appendix. Over the period 2000–2006, GPs prescribed or supplied medicines to manage most cardiovascular problems (Table 5). Table 5: Medicines prescribed or supplied by GPs for specific problems, 2000–06 Problem managed Medicine rate per 100 problems (95%CI) Arrhythmia 81.1 (78.1–84.2) Diabetes 72.3 (70.5–74.1) Heart failure 118.6 (114.2–123.0) Hypertension 96.5 (95.2–97.9) Ischaemic heart disease 116.6 (113.1–120.1) Lipid disorder 65.4 (64.4–66.5) Peripheral vascular disease 37.4 (32.7–42.1) Stroke 58.7 (53.3–64.1) Source: BEACH study (unpublished). Hypertension is the most common problem managed in general practice, at 6.5% of all problems in 2005–06. Between 2000–01 and 2005–06 the rate of management of hypertension by GPs increased (from 8.6 to 9.4 hypertension problems managed per 100 encounters). In 2005–06, agents acting on the renin–angiotensin system were by far the most popular medicines prescribed or supplied for hypertension (53.4 per 100 problems), followed by calcium-channel blockers (18.9 per 100 problems), beta-blocking agents (11.9 per 100 problems), and diuretics (7.4 per 100 problems), while antihypertensives were seldom prescribed (1.7 per 100 problems) (Figure 9 and Table e1).
